They say timing is everything. For example 18 years ago I had been single for a long time and had given up on romance when a blind date turned into a happy marriage. I wasn’t looking for a wife but I sure found one!
Sometimes at weddings we are not looking for a certain shot but try to be quick enough to spot one as it happens. Maybe it’s a skill or maybe its just dumb luck. I prefer to think that it is a matter of having done this long enough to be aware of what might happen and to capture it before it slips away.
Take this image as an example. We had just completed taking the formals and had sent the wedding party ahead to the reception. We typically spend a few minutes with the B&G for some intimate poses and so as the sun was getting low we were following the couple when they stepped into the sunlight. I yelled something super-intelligent like “Freeze!” and they did. Click.
No weddings this weekend so Mark is headed to South Carolina for a Christmas visit with his family and Anne’s household will have a big birthday party to celebrate.
